Trve. Cvlt. Pop! Reviews: Avenged Sevenfold - Life is but a Dream...
Hello everyone, we're back with another Trve. Cvlt. Pop! Reviews, a podcast dedicated to one upcoming album that we believe is worth spending an entire episode on.
This time Sam and Steve are looking at Life is but a Dream..., the 8th studio album by Orange County metal megastars Avenged Sevenfold. The follow up to 2016's The Stage has been a long time coming, so long that many people have already made their mind up about the record before they had even heard a note. Mainly because A7X frontman M. Shadows said it was influenced by funk, soul and (gasp) Kanye West! Whilst all of that may well be true, it only tells a tiny bit of the story of the album we get here. This is a wild record, full of some of the biggest flights of fancy that any major metal band have taken in years, possibly decades. Is it any good? Well, it depends on your mindset; do you want your bands to grow, challenge you, take huge risks and show ambition, or are you just a dullard? As you'll hear, we're very pro-Life is but a Dream...
